Key Findings & Highlights:

This Business Process case study illustrates a number of key aspects. It shows that:

  • An initial “lift-and-shift” can be used to finance process and technology transformation
  • Segmentation of processes eliminates the need for having specialist skills and increases the proportion of standard “horizontal” activities; it can have a major impact in improving process scalability and reducing process costs
  • A common content workflow for print and digital products can make a major contribution to collaboration and reporting as well as work scheduling
  • It is possible to move to a variable-cost per transaction pricing model while simultaneously achieving a significant cost reduction.
